The sum for the odd items ranges from 5 to 25, while the sum for the even items ranges from 4 to 20. The higher the number the more favorable you are towards the subscale (see below) and the lower the number the more unfavorable you are towards the subscale (see below). The five odd numbered items represent the Impartial Beneficence (OUSIB) subscale; these items all tap endorsement of the impartial maximization of the greater good, even at the cost of personal self-sacrifice. The four even numbered items represent the Instrumental Harm (OUS-IH) subscale; these items all tap a willingness to cause harm to bring about the greater good. In discussing your results, you do not have available relative information such as what your classmates or others scored. Nonetheless you can still discuss your results in an absolute sense thinking in terms of almost always true to almost never true
